Lovely review in @TheTLS
LIght Across The Plains by Sharon Duggal
‘Duggal vastly increases her scope and sweep, but the book’s greatest strength lies in …, how personal the women’s journeys feel’.

Once you've read that, have a gander at A Football Odyssey - Passion, Politics and the Beautiful Game by Rob Potts.

Many thanks to Bee Literary Magazine @NewWritingNorth
'This historical fact underpins Sharon Duggal's extraordinary Light Across the Plains, an epic novel that tracks women from two generations of a Punjabi family across India and Europe between the 1940s and the present.'

You may wish to read _Post - it Notes from Underground_ by Simon Crump. Motivational notes are left for the cleaning team every morning. It is a kind and very funny book. The Times said it is 'Brilliantly special.'

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump and his family have lost surprise elections, thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

A career highlight today as I do an event - with my friend, Jim - at Imperial War Museum, London.

Just a few of my pals who’ve put their weight behind my quest to help #SaveSquareChapelArts in Halifax.
But my eternal gratitude goes to each and every single one of you good people out there who’ve supported my cause… you are bloody awesome! 🙌 x

Why I love publishing.
When a wonderful librarian gets in touch and says that
One of your books is 'fantastic' and they're going to buy copies for reading groups.
Just bloody brilliant.
